Too many toys taking over the family room...

...problem solved



In an effort to cut back on the clutter of toys, which seem to take over a room in a matter of seconds, I have turned our front closet into a play space for Miss Lola.
This is also her space to proudly display her princess items such as the Disney Princess poster & Disney Princess couch, which happens to be nice for me since I don't necessarily want those particular items on display anywhere else in the house. There aren't a lot of things that are prettier than a character themed couch which also pulls out into a bed complete with a Princess sleeping bag. I should mention that this is Lola's new favorite place to take her afternoon naps as seen in the photo below.



She seems to love her new play space and enjoys entertaining her family & friends in what she calls her "Princess room" so if you're here visiting be prepared to spend some time on a nice comfy couch, if she lets you sit there. Most of the time she directs her guests to sit on the floor.

THIS IS IT

I finally got to see THIS IS IT!
After seeing this documentary it is clear that this would have been the greatest concert ever. What is also clear is that I have a very good friend in Angela. Not being a huge Michael fan she agreed to go with me. I'm not sure if she agreed because she secretly wanted to see it or if it's because I called her and said "you know, you really should go see this with me."
Regardless, she went and I thank her.
What's also exciting is that I got to wear my old Michael Jackson t-shirt and surprisingly all of me fit into it!

Anyway, this was an excellent documentary, I enjoyed it very much. Well worth the wait.

tapping her way into your heart

Aaron and I both agree that Lola is very smart, talented and beautiful. I'm pretty sure most parents would say the same thing about their own children but in this case we are sure we've got some serious talent on our hands and I'm not just saying that because she's OUR daughter. OK, I am.

**Lola would like to thank Jenny & Stella for her new tap shoes and she would like to thank her Daddy for picking up this beginners tap DVD from the library. Yes, you read that right, AARON picked up a beginner tap DVD for his daughter.

We are in the process of prepping Lola for the talent portion of the competitions.
